No, not everything. Just unsubstantiated claims presented as facts.Not everything has to be greeted with cynicism or sarcasm.

That still doesn't answer where YOU learned about it.Here’s a clue:
‘An approach to TMG for comment and confirmation was clearly an unpleasant surprise, “we have no comment on this speculation”, the response garnered.’
The TMG source for PD scanning models was also the Alonso source. The source behind driver line-up changes, TMG designing a GR010 replacement, and the source for a 3rd car for Ogier next year.
What makes you think they’re placed close to the car? It’s a car on site that PD scanned some years ago. The person in question has nothing to do with the collection.... but it's still not and never has been an MR2 Group B car, by virtue of not being an MR2 and not made for Group B, and you'd think a specialist source placed close to the car and with all this motorsport knowledge would know that pretty basic information.
But what would I know?
You can take it how you like. It’s a discussion thread speculating about cars in a videogame. The only place to scan and reference a number of these forthcoming (and recently added) cars is TMG.No, not everything. Just unsubstantiated claims presented as facts.
Some news is first hand. Others came from a friend. DSC made the call re. Alonso because I was chatting to the editor and mentioned it.That still doesn't answer where YOU learned about it.
You keep going back and forth it's impossible to tell how to take it.You can take it how you like. It’s a discussion thread speculating about cars in a videogame. The only place to scan and reference a number of these forthcoming (and recently added) cars is TMG.
Scanned the TS010, TS020, MR2 Group B car, and a bunch of WRC/Group A Celica’s & Corolla's. Plus the more recent LMP1’s and the GR010 we just got.
This is some Vsauce levels of "...or did they?"It’s a discussion thread speculating about cars in a videogame. The only place to scan and reference a number of these forthcoming (and recently added) cars is TMG.
So... just to get this straight...The person in question has nothing to do with the collection.
So you mean the car you hinted at was not on the leaked list, but has been added to the internal list since with a good amount of data to it?Some cars do have more information than others, but a good chunk is just mere references. The car i've alluded to is one of them and may not be set in stone at all, but it's a recent addition that it's also fair to treat as something planned to come.
Don't forget as well as this mole he has in Toyota Germany, he also has friends in PD localisation working on a GT7 PC port.So... just to get this straight...
... the person who told you - or the person who told the person who told you, or the person who told the person who told you - about the specific cars PD definitely scanned at "TMG"*... "has nothing to do with the collection"?
But we're all supposed to accept that this source which "has nothing to do with the collection" is totally, 100% accurate about which cars PD scanned, despite one of the cars not existing (along with the other incorrect information about it).
Seems legit.
*Which is actually the "Toyota Motorsport Museum", within the Toyota Gazoo Racing Europe HQ in Cologne, but since we've already battled through two layers of incorrect terminology, why the hell not go for a third?
Yes. That list is rather old stuff. If I recall correctly there's even GT4 leftovers/bits of data as opposed to actual cars that they may plan on adding that are on that list, so as I said, not a confirmation of any sort and take it with a grain of salt as to whether even a half are actually planned for release.So you mean the car you hinted at was not on the leaked list, but has been added to the internal list since with a good amount of data to it?
So were the cars that are coming to the game on Thursday also only added recently? Is there a possible timeframe for theYes. That list is rather old stuff.

What is the point? This car has been publically accessible not long ago. I took a couple of photos of it myself.The only way to settle this argument is for the leaker to send a photo of the "MR2 Group B" with his handwriting and can of beans visible or else it didn't happen.

Nathan, buddy. People on this site have cynicism because there's been multiple promises or statements made by other people for ages and they all fell flat. There's even promises made by Polyphony Digital that have not come true in the past. Thus people need actual, concrete proof of claims like this. You gotta understand and respect that.Not everything has to be greeted with cynicism or sarcasm.
Xj220 🙏Really excited to see this. We have old classics returning such as Skyline Silhouette and Escudo Pikes Peak. But mostly I'm grateful for a bunch of Lotus cars coming up, considering the British sportscar maker was missing altogether.

Source, so that there's no clickbait attempt
Edit: corrected title
To be honest, this isn't as bad if you consider that some models are all "generational models".At the moment, for single model cars, any GT-R and the AE86/GT86/GR86/BRZ cars are tied at Thirteen. Eleven 911 models. Eleven Corvette/Sting Rays from all eras. Eight Mustangs. Eight Supras. Eight Impreza/WRX models. Seven Z cars.
Wonder how many more cars there’d be if we only got one defining model from each brand.
I'm mean you're right but you're wrong...People seem to be very quick to forget that Toyota almost entirely pulled out of racing games (apart from GTS) only a few years ago because they didn't want their brand tarnished by sweaty gamers and have only just more recently changed their stance (although some suspect that this was also a bid for better licensing deals, just like Lotus).
While Integra and Civic are duplicates, Silvia K's and Q's have different performance.Now for real duplicates:
2. Honda Civic (EK9) Type-R 1997 / 1998
3. Honda Integra DC2 Type-R 1995 / 1998
4. Nissan Silvia S13 Ks Dia Selection / Silvia S13 Qs
Wasen't it an excuse for appearing exclusively in GT tho?I'm mean you're right but you're wrong...
Toyota Doesn't Want Its Cars in Games With 'Illegal Street Racing' (UPDATE)
UPDATE (08.21.19): Toyota UK has released a series of tweets in regards to the (now-deleted) original "illegal street racing" comment: https://twitter.com/ToyotaUK/status/1164177380711288832?s=20 "We love that you want to see our cars in all your favourite racing games, and honestly, we want thewww.gtplanet.net
I see many people say the same thing and i don't know why as they have quite big mechanical differences.3. Honda Integra DC2 Type-R 1995 / 1998
Kind of but at least they are coming from different brands.6. Subaru BRZ 2021 / Toyota GR 86 RZ
This one however might be the worst duplicate of all.Toyota GT "Limited"
But what's the point in having them? I haven't checked, but are the differences really that large? If they are minimal, like 20 or so hp difference or kilos, there's really no point. There's also the chassis to take into account, which are basically the same.While Integra and Civic are duplicates, Silvia K's and Q's have different performance.
What are the big differences between those Integras?I see many people say the same thing and i don't know why as they have quite big mechanical differences.
Kind of but at least they are coming from different brands.
This one however might be the worst duplicate of all.
Power,torque,weight,max torque RPM,wheel\tyre size brakes gear ratios and more.What are the big differences between those Integras?
No thats like saying Honda and Honda US.This would be the same as having an Acura NSX and a Honda NSX in the game. All in all... it's a duplicate.
Not quite because PD had to fully include both due to licensing and at least they sound differently.Also I forgot to mention 1 more obvious car that is a duplicate... The Super Formula cars from Toyota and Honda which are literally the same but different brand.
There are differences, so they’re not duplicates.While Integra and Civic are duplicates, Silvia K's and Q's have different performance.
And the 95' integra has a chonker bodykit.Power,torque,weight,max torque RPM,wheel\tyre size brakes gear ratios and more.
